Can't really agree. It's improved my life more than any other single innovation made in my lifetime.

    The positives: Some tech nerds got a cool new toy

    The negatives: Culture is destroyed, truth is destroyed, democracy is destroyed.

    I guess its a wash at the end of the day.

      Just because those things happened in Dune doesn't mean they'll come true. It should be obvious what massive potential the thinking machines have for humanity as a whole.

    So? Something can be bad for society while improving your individual lot in life.
